Phibro Animal Health Brazil, producer of pharmaceutical and nutritional additives for cattle, poultry, and swine, decided to expand its research and development capacity, with an investment of almost $3 million in a new lab facility.

Phibro's structure allows carrying out product certification of companies using virginiamycin as a base.

It will continue increasingly contributing to the Brazilian and global markets, by improving animal productivity with new products related to programs and services for the market, supporting the development of our clients' businesses," said Vilson Simon, vice president of Latin America operations and general director.
